Abstract
⺠We studied geochemistry of mafic rocks from the Nain ophiolites in Iran. ⺠The rocks show characters of island arc tholeiite/mid-ocean ridge basalt magma types. ⺠They are originated in an oceanic back arc basin, and subsequently have been enriched by slab-derived fluids. ⺠The arc volcanic-like magmas were produced at the early stage. ⺠The MORB-like basalts were generated at the later stage of evolution of the Nain ophiolitic complex.
